Yasmin Warsame- Beauty Role Model

Somalian beauty inspiration: Yasmin

Enjoy!!! Here is an excerpt about her career:

While most models embark on their career in their teens, Yasmin Warsame was in her early 20s – and five months’ pregnant with her son Hamzah – when she accepted her first job, a catalogue shoot in her adopted home of Toronto.Her look, however, was considered too "haute couture" for the local scene, making work scarce.

But behind the scenes, this person's lifestyle borders on lavish. The sexuality of these idealistic subjects will be somewhat reserved and his or her selection of bed partners on the "choosy" side. Once stimulated the Virgo/Pig's baser sensuality comes alive and ...
